以西結書 40
1 我們充軍後第二十五年，京城被毀後第十四年，年初，月之初十日，就在這一天，上主的手臨於我。
In the five and twentieth year of our captivity, in the beginning of the year, in the tenth day of the month, in the fourteenth year after that the city was struck, in the same day, the hand of the LORD was on me, and he brought me there.
2 在神視中領我來到以色列地，把我放在最高的山上，山的南方有座像城的建築物。
In the visions of God brought he me into the land of Israel, and set me down on a very high mountain, whereon was as it were the frame of a city on the south.
3 他領我到了那裏，看，有一個人，面色似銅，手中拿著一條麻繩和測量竿。他站在門樓旁。
He brought me there; and, look, there was a man, whose appearance was like the appearance of bronze, with a line of flax in his hand, and a measuring reed; and he stood in the gate.
4 那人對我說：「人子，你要用眼看，用耳聽，留意我向你指示的一切，因為我引你到這裏來，為叫你看見；凡你所見的，你要告訴以色列家族。」
The man said to me, "Son of man, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart on all that I shall show you; for, to the intent that I may show them to you, you are brought here: declare all that you see to the house of Israel."
5 看，在殿外四周有一道圍牆。那人手中拿的測量竿長六肘──肘是一肘加一掌──他用竿量了牆：寬一竿，高一竿。
Look, a wall on the outside of the house all around, and in the man's hand a measuring reed ten feet four inches (based on a standard eighteen inches plus three inches). So he measured the thickness of the building ten feet four inches, and the height ten feet four inches.
6 他來到面朝東的門樓，上了石級，量了門限，寬一竿；
Then came he to the gate which looks toward the east, and went up its steps: and he measured the threshold of the gate, ten feet four inches broad; and the other threshold, ten feet four inches broad.
7 量了守衛房：長一竿，寬一竿；房與房之間相離五肘；內裏門廊的門限，為一竿。
Every side-room was ten feet four inches long, and one reed broad; and the space between the side-rooms was eight feet seven inches; and the threshold of the gate by the porch of the gate at the inner end was ten feet four inches.
8 又量了內裏的門廊，
He measured also the porch of the gate toward the house, ten feet four inches.
9 為八肘，壁柱厚二肘，門廊是在內裏。
Then measured he the porch of the gate, thirteen feet nine inches; and its jambs, three feet five inches; and the porch of the gate was toward the inner end.
10 東門樓的守衛房，這邊三間，那邊三間；三間的尺寸相同，兩邊壁柱的尺寸也相同。
The side-rooms of the gate eastward were three on this side, and three on that side; they three were of one measure: and the jambs had the same measurement.
11 量了門口的寬度，為十肘；門的通道為十三肘寬。
He measured the breadth of the opening of the gate, seventeen feet three inches; and the length of the gate, twenty-two feet five inches;
12 守衛房前面有柵欄，兩邊各突出一肘。守衛房各邊為六肘。
and a barrier in front of the side-rooms, twenty-one inches, and a barrier on the other side, twenty-one inches; and the side-rooms were ten feet four inches square.
13 量了門樓，由守衛房頂到對面守衛房頂，寬二十五肘；門與門相對。
He measured the gate from the ceiling of the one side-room to the ceiling of the other, a breadth of fourty-three feet one inch; the openings being opposite each other.
14 量了門廊，為二十肘；通過門廊，即是外院。
He also measured the porch, one hundred three feet four inches; and to the jamb of the courtyard was the gateway all around.
15 由門樓的前面到內裏門廊的前面，共五十肘。
From the forefront of the gate at the entrance to the forefront of the inner porch of the gate were eighty-six feet one inch.
16 門樓四周，在守衛房和牆壁上，有向內斜帶櫺的窗戶；走廊四周也有這樣向內的窗戶。壁柱上有棕櫚枝。
There were closed windows to the side-rooms, and toward their jambs within the gate all around, and likewise to the porches; and windows were around the inside; and on each jamb were palm trees.
17 他引我到了外院；看，有廊房，在庭院四周修的有舖道，舖道上有廊房三十間。
Then he brought me into the outer court; and look, there were rooms and a pavement, made for the court all around: thirty rooms faced the pavement.
18 在各門樓旁邊也有舖道，同門樓一樣長，這是低舖道。
The pavement was by the side of the gates, corresponding to the length of the gates; this was the lower pavement.
19 他由下門樓前面，量到內院門樓前面，共一百肘寬。然後他向北走去。
Then he measured the breadth from the forefront of the lower gate to the forefront of the inner court outside, one hundred seventy-two feet three inches, both on the east and on the north.
20 看，在外院有一座面朝北的門樓。他量的門樓的寬和長。
And the gate of the outer court which faced toward the north, he measured its length and its breadth.

38 在門樓的門廊兩旁，各有一間有門的廂房，在裏面洗滌全燔祭牲。
And a chamber with its door was by the porch of the gate; there they washed the burnt offering.
39 在門廊兩邊，每邊有兩張桌子，在上面宰殺全燔祭、贖罪祭和贖過祭犧牲。
And in the porch of the gate were two tables on either side, and two tables on that side, on which to slaughter the burnt offering and the sin offering and guilt offering.
40 在登上門廊的入口處的北面，靠外的一面有兩張桌子，在門廊的另一面也有兩張桌子。
On the one side outside, as one goes up to the entrance of the north gate, were two tables; and on the other side of the porch of the gate were two tables.

And from the outside of the inner gate were two chambers in the inner court, one which was at the side of the north gate facing toward the south; and one at the side of the south gate facing toward the north.
45 他對我說：「那面朝南的廂房是為在殿內供職的司祭之用，
He said to me, "This room that faces toward the south, is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the house;
46 那面朝北的廂房是為在祭壇前供職的司祭之用，他們是肋未的後代中，走近祭壇供職的匝多克的子孫。」
and the room that faces toward the north is for the priests, the keepers of the duty of the altar: these are the sons of Zadok, who from among the sons of Levi come near to the LORD to minister to him."
